3ft Coiled 3.5mm Male To 3.5mm Male Stereo Audio Cable - White

The 3.5mm (1/8") stereo TRS connector is more commonly known as the Headphone Jack on portable mp3 players and mobile phones. This cable has a gold plated male 3.5mm stereo (TRS) plug on each end and features ultra-slim connector heads.

The cable is coiled, with a minimal length of about 10" and a maximum length about 3 feet. The cable is ideal for connecting a stereo audio output, such as an mp3 player or phone, to a stereo audio input, such as the auxiliary input on a car stereo system.

Reviews

Housing where jacks connect to cable were both cracked on arrival, both had totally fallen off within a day, now cable is breaking at jack connection. Not the greatest thing I've ordered from Monoprice.

I made a buyer error, I read fast and didnâ??t notice the description said â??coiled-cordâ??, not just ordinary. Stretched out, it was the desired length, but my use was to lay it along cabinet surface between 2 equipments 3 feet apart. The cable is functions fine, but is trying to pull the two equipemnts together. The quality of materials is top notch.

I bought this cable to connect my ipod in the car from the stereo to the open pocket above and didn't want a bunch of cable to deal with. This worked perfectly for me. The actual compressed length of this cable is only 9in, so maybe it was 3ft before it was coiled, but don't think you'll get that out of it. (The coil is strong enough that if you connected a lightweight device like an iPod to it and tried to put it on a desk even 18" away, the coil will pull the iPod across the desk until the coil is compressed)

This cable is short. Repeat: This cable is short. If you need a cable longer than 6", you need a different cable.

I like modern thin mobile phones and media players, but I don't like the trend of requiring smaller and less robust cable connections to these devices. The monoprice "premium" 3.5mm TRS cables with molded ends are too large to fully insert into most modern devices if they are install in a protective (or battery added) case. It is getting more difficult to locate replacement TRS connectors to repair cables that the ends fail.

Thank goodness for affordable replacement cables from monoprice!

This cable works fine for your iPod tethered to your car stereo (that you keep just above or below) in the dash or in your console bin.

PROS: Slim connectors work great for modern mobile devices that require them. Takes some abuse pretty well (player falls and the tether keeps it from a hard fall)

CONS: Slim connectors aren't cemented to the cables, so if there is repeated abuse, the cable fails

Truly sorry to hear about the issue you have encountered with PID 9566. We do offer a lifetime warranty on our cables, If you would like I can assist you in setting up an RMA for a replacement to see if that will work better for you. Or if you prefer trying a different cable we also have PID 9764 and 11510 if you prefer a cable that is not coiled:

Please let me know if you would like to proceed with a replacement and I can get that started for you right away. Hope this helps!

Works, but not very durable.

Within a couple weeks, the plastic casing around the solder point on both ends broke. Where I was using it probably put stress on it, but it broke very quickly. It still transmits signal with no problem, so it's not a big deal. I'll probably get a cable with a metal casing like PID 11502.

These would be great in a space where you don't want cables hanging out but still need to pull it out once and awhile. Unfortunately the plastic on the plug cracked immediately, exposing the wire and connector and making it difficult to remove the plug. Can't recommend them.

PROS: worked, compact, tight spiral

CONS: The plastic at the base of the plug was brittle and cracked immediately on both of the cables I bought. 3' is misleading, stretching the coil will get you 12"-16" max.

Thank you for your review. And I am truly sorry to hear of your experience you have had with this product. For now, if you prefer, I can assist you in setting you up for a replacement on the item if you haven't done so already. We do warrant our non-electronics and cables with a lifetime warranty as well as a 1 year warranty for electronics. It will be of no additional cost to obtain a replacement, so please let me know if you want to continue. I would just require your order# to set it up. Alternatively, if you are truly unsatisfied of the item I can assist you in setting up a return. Thank you!
